@stefanf28 @mattburgess right? I wonder the same thing. When I talk to friends I notice a techno optimism that blinds them.

- Oh look what I can do with ChatGPT
- They show me things to buy that align perfectly with my preferences

So I try to present them with a different perspective, at least to get them to think.

@pepicrft @mattburgess well done for doing that. The speed at which people are willing to hand over some deeply personal insights to an unaccountable, still relatively unknown corporate entity is scary. I mean, we’ve seen this kind of behaviour before of course - but this thing is next level.

The pushback I normally get is classic: “but I have nothing to hide!”

@stefanf28 @mattburgess or they don’t know all the insights that they can get by aggregating data and what they can do with them. We need more education around this subject.
Sadly, the government doesn’t seem interested in changing that — the less citizens know, the better
